Yeah.. it's 32 kHz, I need to check with scope on Monday.

And make sure that it's actually oscillating while you're experiencing the time returning zero. With this type of circuit the act of testing with the scope can make the circuit work.

When I run Clock Diagnostics using bootloader, it seems External crystal is running.

Code: Select all

BL>C
ClockDiagnostic
SYS:168000000 H:168000000, P1:42000000, P2:84000000
LSI:31264, LSE:32772
PLL Source

SYS:168000000 H:168000000, P1:42000000, P2:84000000

Micropython time module returns 0, I reinstalled the firmware, still it does the same thing.

Code: Select all

>>> import pyb, time, os
>>> rtc = pyb.RTC()
>>> rtc.info()
262147
>>> rtc.datetime((2014, 5, 1, 4, 13, 0, 0, 0))
>>> print(rtc.datetime())
(2000, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0)
>>> time.time()
0
>>>
>>>

Changed this in stmhal/main.c (false>true), seems RTC is running okay now.

Code: Select all

#if MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_RTC
    if (first_soft_reset) {
        rtc_init_start(true);
    }
#endif

rtc.c has some timeout values, is anything timing it out before initialization?

Code: Select all

#define PYB_LSE_TIMEOUT_VALUE 1000  // ST docs spec 2000 ms LSE startup, seems to be too pessimistic
#define PYB_LSI_TIMEOUT_VALUE 500   // this is way too pessimistic, typ. < 1ms

Only just seen this. Perhaps it explains why a couple of times I've had the experience of files being transmogrified to contain all 1s?

Perhaps bozos like me could be reminded somewhere in capital letters ...

I think the official docs should discourage the use of MSC mode and point users to tools such as rshell. If it were up to me I'd disable it by default on new boards. But I guess people expect a USB device to appear as a disk...

It's a source of needless problems.
